But ahead of a potential season 4, here's everything you need to know about Sweet Magnolias season 3.

Sweet Magnolias cast: Who is back for season 3?
Of course, the Sweet Magnolias themselves are back for the latest chapter, with JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Heather Headley and Brooke Elliott now well-established in their respective roles of Maddie, Helen and Dana Sue.
Justin Bruening (Grey's Anatomy), Chris Klein (The Flash) and Jamie Lynn Spears (Zoey 101) are expected to return as Maddie's love interest Cal, ex-husband Bill and former rival, Noreen, respectively.
Meanwhile, Logan Allen, Anneliese Judge and Carson Rowland reprise their roles as local high schoolers Kyle, Annie and Ty, who have problems of their own to deal with.
In June 2023, it was announced that child actor Ella Grace Helton would be replacing Bianca Berry Tarantino in the role of Katie Townsend – young daughter of Maddie and Bill – from season 3 onwards (via Deadline).
The Sweet Magnolias cast also includes Chris Medlin (Diana: The Musical), Dion Johnstone (Jane) and Brandon Quinn (The Fosters).
Sweet Magnolias season 3 plot
There's plenty for Sweet Magnolias season 3 to delve into as Maddie comes to the aid of Kyle, whose anger issues risk destroying the life in Serenity that he's worked hard to build.
Meanwhile, Helen will continue down the long road to recovery following her heartbreaking miscarriage, while also deciding what the next chapter of her life will look like – and who she'll be spending it with.
Lastly, Dana Sue is presented with an unexpected opportunity to help the wider community, but is conscious that this doesn't come at the cost of her own family's stability.
